GIS based method for mapping actual LULC by combining seasonal LULCs
MethodsX, 2023 One of the most significant applications of remote sensing data is to prepare land use and land cover (LULC) maps. LULC maps are always affected by seasonality and a single LULC map of a particular month is prepared to represent a year in most of the research, especially in change detection research.

European Journal of Sustainable Development, 2023 Urbanization is among the human activities that affect the quality of urban life and sustainable urban development at a global scale. For monitoring human-induced changes in cities, studies on the changes in land use/land cover (LULC) based on a series of satellite images along with geographic information systems (GIS) are widely used.
